JAPANESE OPINION
ON SINGAPORE BASE
NATIONAL—NOT INTERNATIONAL. BY CABLE-PRESS ASSOCIATION—COPYRIGHT (Received Dec. 20 11.10 a.m.) TOKIO, Dec. 19. Kato, interviewed, said that, while as an individual Japanese he did not welcome the construction of the Singapore base, he was of the opinion that as the base had been contemplated for 20 years past, and was also outside the scope of the Washington Treaty, the construction was inevitable. British authorities had given assurances that the base was a purely national affair, and was not intended to influence international relations. Japan, therefore,-, must w'atch closely future developments.
